Stocks in this sector (ECOM)

Highest traction among products launched in the last 7 days. Traction for older Product Hunt launches is frozen (votes stop being re-read ~31–36h after launch; Show HN after 7 days), so this is each product’s last recorded traction. 202 matches; top 200 loaded. Spam giveaways excluded.

Mixed sources. Traction is Product Hunt votes (PH) or Show HN points (HN) — not the same unit, and PH has ~7× the launches. So each source is ranked on its own and the two are alternated (PH #1, HN #1, PH #2, HN #2, …); the # column is that combined order. Pick a source above to see one source’s full ranking.

Traction = current votes (PH) / points (HN) — early-adopter attention, not downloads or usage. Gained = traction gained between the two latest daily ingest runs; Gain % only when the previous traction was 5+. Buzz = comments gained in that interval. “frozen” = no longer tracked, so no current gain. How it works
